To find a solution for the n-element knapsack problem, the proposed algorithm needs O（2^3n/8） time when O（2^3n/8） shared memory units and O（2^n/4） processors are available. The comparisons between the proposed algorithm and 10 existing algorithms show that the improved parallel three-fist algorithm is the first exclusive-read exclusive-write （EREW） parallel algorithm that can solve the knapsack instances in less than O（2^n/2） time when the available hardware resource is smaller than O（2^n/2） , and hence is an improved result over the past researches.展开更多

However, most of existing feature selection methods are serial and inefficient to be applied to massive text data sets. In this case, a feature selection method based on parallel collaborative evolutionary genetic algorithm is presented. The presented method uses genetic algorithm to select feature subsets and takes advantage of parallel collaborative evolution to enhance time efficiency, so it can quickly acquire the feature subsets which are more representative. The experimental results show that, for accuracy ratio and recall ratio, the presented method is better than information gain, x2 statistics, and mutual information methods; the consumed time of the presented method with only one CPU is inferior to that of these three methods, but the presented method is supe rior after using the parallel strategy.展开更多

One Cluster of Workstation （COW） with Message Passing Interface （MPI） is built. The proposed Multi-Deme Parallel FGA （MDPFGA） is run on the platform. A serial of special MDPFGAs are used to determine the static and the dynamic solutions of generalized m-best S-D assignment problem respectively, as well as target states estimation in track management. Such an assignment-based parallel algorithm is demonstrated on simulated passive sensor track formation and maintenance problem. While illustrating the feasibility of the proposed algorithm in multisensor multitarget tracking, simulation results indicate that the MDPFGAs-based algorithm has greater efficiency and speed than the FGAs-based algorithm.展开更多

The purpose of the algorithm is to accelerate the operation of the EM algorithm. As a well-known algorithm for estimation in generic statistical problems, the EM algorithm has been widely used in many domains. But it often requires significant computational resources. So it is needed to develop more elaborate methods to adapt the databases to a large number of records or large dimensionality. The parallel EM algorithm is based on partial Esteps which has the standard convergence guarantee of EM. The algorithm utilizes fully the advantage of parallel computation. It was confirmed that the algorithm obtains about 2.6 speedups in contrast with the standard EM algorithm through its application to large databases. The running time will decrease near linearly when the number of processors increasing.展开更多

Fi...Aimed at the real-time forward kinematics solving problem of Stewart parallel manipulator in the control course, a mixed algorithm combining immune evolutionary algorithm and numerical iterative scheme is proposed. Firstly taking advantage of simpleness of inverse kinematics, the forward kinematics is transformed to an optimal problem. Immune evolutionary algorithm is employed to find approximate solution of this optimal problem in manipulator＇s workspace. Then using above solution as iterative initialization, a speedy numerical iterative scheme is proposed to get more precise solution. In the manipulator running course, the iteration initialization can be selected as the last period position and orientation. Because the initialization is closed to correct solution, solving precision is high and speed is rapid enough to satisfy real-time requirement. This mixed forward kinematics algorithm is applied to real Stewart parallel manipulator in the real-time control course. The examination result shows that the algorithm is very efficient and practical.展开更多
